Hi Karen,

How are you doing? It was lovely to hear from you and your lovely message. I hope that your day tomorrow is ok and you can give your girls lots of kisses and cuddles!

Hope you are doing ok,

Re: Despair *potential trigger: abuse*

Dear Karen,

It is so like you to think of all of us in the midst of so much yourself. I hope you have some time tomorrow with your beasutiful girls.

I think any day can be Mother's Day. Who needs the retailers to tell us when it is (so we spend money in an otherwise "quiet time")? I've always encouraged my kids to make something for me - a special card or breakfast in bed. Not on any particular day of the year but just when they want to express their appreciation. 

So I really hope you have some special time with your girls soon. I haven't been posting much. I've got a cold coming on so I feel like crap, and lots of other stuff too (internal and external) which has been stirring things up for me. Keep on keeping on, even when the road gets bumpy or the mountain track gets steep.

I light the candle each night, and the fire is going. Thinking of you and holding you in my prayers.

You too @Former-Member , @Alessandra1992 , @PeppiPatty , @sara , @Uggbootdiva. Blessings for tomorrow and every day.

Hope for nurturing relationships endures...

Kindest regards, 

Kristin

And others we can't get online because we keep on getting cut off with too many names...


I'm unashamedly watching Men in Black 2. I've been sitting here really confused at how my dear neighbour and friend has been ignored by her friends since her partner passed away. It's been sad....only one visit and that's from my a stalker.....a couple of times.

but we...we the stigmatised have SO much compassion for each other.
so so love this about this forum.

thank you Karen, you lovely lady for starting this mothers Day blog and saying Happy Mother's Day to each other. It's so nice.
so Karen, one feather in your cap for being caring. One for being compassionate to others even when your life is chaotic,

Xx

Re: Despair *potential trigger: abuse*

Big hugs to you too Karen.

I submitted graciously to being fed cold toast in bed for breakfast by my 7yo Woman Happy I took my younger ones out to afternoon tea at the bakery in Warby today. My treat. 

It's been raining heaps, and the river is very full. The forecast is for rain and... more rain. Maybe not raining on Tuesday and Friday. Thinking of you my friend and hoping you are out soon. 

Hope for a walk in the sunshine on the rail trail endures...

Kindest regards, 

Kristin

Re: Despair *potential trigger: abuse*

Really sorry to hear you're having a hard time of it Hiddenite. Hope you're back on track soon and out of there. I'm sending a big, long hug your way if only virtually.
